Do you need help with the upcoming agricultural policy changes?
Herefordshire Rural Hub is here to help you …
Herefordshire Rural Hub is delighted to be the delivery partner for two of Defra’s new Farm Resilience programmes.
Defra is providing up to £9 million funding to organisations who will, in turn, support up to 9,000 farmers and land managers.
Resilience support will help individual farmers and land managers to learn more about …
- The impact of reductions to direct payments on their business
- How their business models might need to adapt
- Business planning
- Performance recording
- Succession planning
The support will be offered free of charge to farmers and land managers by organisations known and trusted in the farming community.
It will be delivered in the form of workshops supported by experts and through direct, one-to-one advice.
Any tenant or owner-occupied farm currently in receipt of BPS in England is eligible to join.
The programme was launched on 18 August 2021 and will run until 28 February 2022.
If you would like to know more and require help with choosing the right programme for you, please contact Sarah Starkey on farming2020@herefordshireruralhub.co.uk or call 07974 438517
